Not a Web Search Engine

What do you get when Chinese people open a Japanese eatery with a nod to the Internet?

This.

While not even remotely authentic (I could understand the staff's chattering in Mandarin), Wahoo Chaya (8151 Arroyo Drive, Rosemead) is decent food for a decent price. I like going here for a quick weekday lunch.

The iced green tea is humongous and refreshing.

I usually get the tempura and sashimi combo ($10.95). It comes with all of this.

I hope Yahoo! never catches on. This ain't gourmet, but it sure is convenient.

    That's hilarious! Out here there's a place called WaFu sushi located in the WaMu plaza. I think they did it on purpose.

    you have no idea how good that sashimi looks. and I'd take the tempura, too.

    Shouldn't they also be careful of Wahoo's (of the fish taco fame)?

    Hilarious.

    No fish tacos? Hmmm. The tempura looks really good though.

    I'm confused as to whether or not I think the name of this place is super creative or not...
